Gail;
I am shocked. I am praying for his fast recovery and for you to have time stand still long enough for you to catch your breath.
Yes, God is good! It could have been worse. I thank God for sparing Russ his life and giving you courage.
Love to you both.

Gail I just now found out about this. I'm sorry to hear about Russ' stroke. I can't imagine how scary something like that is. I pray he gets well fast and comes home soon, and NO repeats EVER.
You did NOT deserve this at all, and neither did he. I'm so sorry.

Thank you so much, everyone! :)
I've just returned from the hospital where he is settled nicely. Before I left he was complaining of the numbness extending up to his shoulder and his arm was getting worse, so they were going to round up something to give him.
I was just telling someone of Russ' frustration of having a leg and arm that just won't do what he wants them to. Walking is labourous but we are getting him up for short distances.
For an artist, having an bum arm (his good hand, too) is not fun at all. He does have an advantage in that 1) he is in pretty good physical condition, and 2) he was once a fitness instructor who worked with stroke victims so he knows what exercises are helpful. I don't think he will stay down for long
There has not been any history of stroke in any of his family. It came on suddenly but because he is trained in first aid he was able to recognize it almost immediately and we acted quickly
Thanks again! We appreciate all your well wishes!
